Hi,
I=E2=80=99m trying to understand the process of signalling and =
activation of updates in bitcoin. Following BIP34, BIP9, I got into =
BIP8.
In my understanding of what I read there, an update will be activated =
even if the threshold of 95% signalling is not reached in STARTED state, =
as soon as blockchain height is equal or higher than timeout_height.
Is my understanding correct? If so, isn=E2=80=99t it a risk to activate =
a change even if you don=E2=80=99t have the majority of hash power =
accepting it?
Thanks for your time,
=E2=80=94
